Way way way way too early to judge persistence. Central loot system isn't even in yet.
-
Food and thirst is tied to distance traveled not time. So stamina and weight will not affect that
-
Modularity for the sake of modularity is garbage. Why do this to the m1911 when it's role is already a low end pistol. The fix fits the high end role.

[Question] Public Shard vs Private Shard
gibonez replied to Weyland Yutani (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Shame. Moving towards all servers being private shards would improve the game dramatically. -
[Question] Public Shard vs Private Shard
gibonez replied to Weyland Yutani (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
I have my fingers crossed that the private shards are just testing experiments that eventually turns every server into a private shards. Getting rid of the public hive would solve so many problems. Less combat logging, no ghosting, no server hopping, greater potential for survival mechanics. -
Pick up truck of course. Ol Toyota pick up

Lead Producer of DayZ says, "1PP is better"
gibonez replied to rickyriot's topic in General Discussion
While that's a reasonable theory I still doubt there would be a drop. Even those players still adapt. They still be kicking and screaming but they would adapt -

I wonder why some people are so dramatic when talking about the removal of 3pp. If they did the unlikely thing and removed 3pp for the sake of gameplay the world would not burn. No people would not stop playing No sales would not stop Just like all things people should adapt. Sure some will rage but in a month or two all will be back to normal. Still unlikely though -
Oooh God why?

Correct word is exploit -

Yea 3pp won't be removed but hopefully it will be fixed making peeking impossible or at least much harder. -
Incapacitation/ Kinectic knockdown discussion

Absolutely the wrong approach for dayz. If that approach were taken from the beginning day z would have never existed. http://youtu.be/b4SzUIfBJeU -
[Question] Public Shard vs Private Shard
gibonez replied to Weyland Yutani (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
They are new that's all. Or people have come to rely on server hopping -
Limiting the variety and the number of military weapons, clothing and items is going to be vital if the devs want to truly differentiate dayz from arma.
-
Yup. The sprinting should not last any longer than a few seconds and anything longer than a minute or so should have your player trip or take a knee to catch his breath. Jogging and walking should be the main movement.
-
Would be great so long as they truly gave the ballistics and shooting mechanics a work around. Remove the akm drum mag introduce a rpk74 and pkm
-
Amazing.Not that the mos or the credit hours is worth the hearing loss.
-
Hmm what makes you think you would be able to transfer mortars to another server? If anything they would be tied to the server as static objects. Even if what you said were possible the chances of encountering such trolling would be rare due to how hard ace mortars are to operate. I really can't stress how hard they are to use. http://youtu.be/5z8GE6UkhRA That doesn't even cover the proper way to find targeting data. It requires thinking and some simple math before you can even begin to fire.
-
Fine let's have it your way. You start with food and have realistic thirst and hunger on one condition. Realistic movement speed, realistic fatigue and most importantly when you log out your character sleeps in game until you Log back in.
-
I suspect it is due to how arma and dayz render distance when in a helicopter making shooting everything insanely easy
-
Halo and cod have the bullets come out of the character foreheads. This is worse since we can all remember getting killed by a player that only the very top of his head is exposed.
-
Calling the gun mediocre and even complaining about the gun before it's even added.... Nothing is final about any of those stats. Just like the initial stats of the m4 and other weapons changes do will these. Stats look find for now though
-
Vehicles would be the biggest thing that benefit from A mod such as the forth wall mod. Have tents and vehicles hidden in the woods no problem since they would not render for helicopters since the tree canopies should obscure it all.

Incapacitation/ Kinectic knockdown discussion
gibonez replied to gibonez's topic in General Discussion
Something like this would be awesome. Neck and artery shots where the bleeding cannot be stopped would be great too trick is to not let the player know that so they desperately keep reapplying rags and bandages trying to save their character. -
Incapacitation/ Kinectic knockdown discussion
gibonez replied to gibonez's topic in General Discussion
Yup if they get rid of the magical rags and incorporate a deep medical system I suspect people will dramatically change in how they play. Hopefully we get A good medical system where a single bullet of any caliber to the right location could be lethal.
